This has to be one of the loveliest books I have ever seen. Created by Tina Kraus as part of her design/illustration final exams, Circus Zingaro is a story about a homeless girl who wants to join a travelling circus. Unfortunately the book is not in print, and I don't know if there are any plans to print it in the future, but you can bet your bottom dollar I will be following Tina's website closely for any such news!

Poppy and Cinnamon have just been joined by little Carol. She's a sweet little thing and has already settled in well with the two older cats. Cinnamon is still quite young, so the two of them are often to be found tearing around the apartment in typical kitten fashion. Poppy (the boss) keeps an eye on everything, from a safe distance of course.

There has been a little bit of sewing going on here. Not much, but a few stitches here and there. Sometimes, like today, something actually gets finished!

I learnt how to make these flowers at a Julie Arkell workshop, and I can't stop making them! I love choosing the fabrics for each flower and I love that it's a quick project that (with a small baby) only takes me a couple of days to finish. Perfect!
